iPhone Lifts Off, Plays Video in Space

This year, we've seen several things sent to space that aren't shuttles or satellites: an iPad, copies of the Mass Effect 3 video game and even an MIT admissions letter. Well, now you can add an iPhone to that list.

During its flight -- captured on footage by two GoPro cameras -- the iPhone played a video of past space missions and quotes well-known space advocates such as Space X co-founder Elon Musk and U.S. presidents Barack Obama, John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan.
